Quick Example

import { io } from "socket.io-client";

const socket = io(CHAINWORKS_API_URL, {
  transports: ["websocket"],
  auth: { token: CHAINWORKS_API_AUTH_TOKEN },
});

socket.on("connect", () => {
  console.log("Connected to Chainworks API");

  // Get a buy quote
  socket.emit("/evm/buy/quote", {
    chain: "eth",
    token: "0x6982508145454Ce325dDbE47a25d4ec3d2311933",
    swapMode: "ExactIn",
    amountIn: "1000000000000000000",
    wallet: "0xYourWallet",
  });
});

socket.on("/evm/buy/quote", (response) => {
  if (response.success) {
    console.log("Price:", response.result.price);
  }
});

// Get a buy quote
const res = await fetch(`${CHAINWORKS_API_URL}/evm/buy/quote`, {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    Authorization: CHAINWORKS_API_AUTH_TOKEN,
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    chain: "eth",
    token: "0x6982508145454Ce325dDbE47a25d4ec3d2311933",
    swapMode: "ExactIn",
    amountIn: "1000000000000000000",
    wallet: "0xYourWallet",
  }),
});

const response = await res.json();
if (response.success) {
  console.log("Price:", response.result.price);
}
